7654 ... 321
The 7,654th day of my life
Who would've thought it could be?
That all of those days of waiting,
This day would set me free?
Why do I feel like today could be it?
When I've been counting down,
but zero has yet to hit?
My heart keeps beating
My blood stays flowing
But my brain is overheating
Without me even knowing
You came into my life
Without fair warning
Consistantly reminding me you care
Each and every morning
It's like destiny introduced us
And faith made us close
As if God sent me an angel
When i needed one most.
You are the exact definition
of what a real man should be;
A true lover, husband, father & friend
You're perfect, but that's something you don't see.
In my eyes you're much more
Than what you'll care to believe.
Because you're my best friend and confidon,
And the truth is what I perceive.
If I died today, I can say that
I'd be sure of only one thing
That meeting you is greatest joy
That my life could ever bring
So when it's all said and done,
I'm still counting down
7 - 6 - 5 - 4 ... 3 - 2 - 1
Zero still has yet to come.
